grandfather into Gamblers

[knittingdog]

I think I remember that  dogs with an Elite Gamblers titles in other venues can start playing NADAC Gamblers at the Elite level.  Surge has his Elite Gamblers title in ASCA.  Is there somewhere I need to send in proof?  Will a picture of his Elite Gamblers title Certificate work?

Thanks!

I believe you can enter Elite Gamblers if you are currently running Elite chances too.

Even though has over 100 legs in USDAA Gamblers, I'm keeping him in Novice chances since he's deaf now. i just want to see how things go!

Along these lines, can one enter Elite Gamblers if they have an Elite Chances title?

 From the news page re Gamblers

Do I have to enter at Novice?
If you are running in a higher level of a gamblers type class in another venue you can grandfather into the Elite level for NADAC.
If you only run in NADAC we are allowing our competitors to grandfather in as well, as long as they have 30 points in Elite Chances.

We are allowing people to enter into the higher levels, if they are running in those higher levels in chances.

We aren't going any forms to submit though, you can just enter normally and we'll handle it on our end

It's all good and dandy but am I the only one that it bugs that the cute little ACD in the banner for the Gamblers info page is going the wrong way through the weaves? Help him out and photoshop that

[Richard Wolfe]

Photoshop likely caused it!!!!!

Maybe there is one more pole that we can't see.

So just to be clear, can people grandfather into Gamblers and enter their current Chances level, or is it only for people who have at least 30 Elite Chances points and can enter Elite Gamblers?

Thanks,

That first statement says if they are running in that level of Chances they can enter in the level of Gamblers.
To me that seems pretty clear.

Yes, except that is different than what the NADAC website says which is that you have to have 30 points in Elite Chances to grandfather in.

Read Chris' comments above.

I was talking to someone yesterday and wondered about something.

Right now - let's say you have a dog running tunnelers. They get their novice title, move to open, get 2 legs, and then move into elite. Those elite points show up - but don't "count" until they backfill 1 leg in open to earn their open title.

Will the same work in elite gamblers? So if a dog is running in elite chances - and has let's say 1 elite chances Q. Can they enter elite gamblers right away and those points just don't "count" until they earn the second two legs of their chances title?
